next_o principle_n of_o good_a work_n for_o though_o it_o be_v the_o merit_a cause_n of_o all_o as_o it_o be_v in_o christ_n yet_o holy_a habit_n be_v the_o next_o principle_n with_o the_o spirit_n

be_v it_o because_o they_o be_v dead_a in_o sin_n before_o faith_n that_o we_o must_v not_o press_v they_o to_o repent_v fear_v and_o love_n god_n etc._n etc._n the_o same_o reason_n will_v hold_v against_o press_v they_o to_o save_v faith_n which_o of_o themselves_o they_o can_v as_o little_a perform_v and_o if_o it_o be_v by_o the_o word_n that_o god_n regenerate_v our_o hearer_n why_o may_v not_o the_o spirit_n infuse_v life_n by_o call_v man_n to_o repent_v etc._n etc._n as_o well_o as_o to_o believe_v and_o a_o true_a principle_n of_o life_n will_v act_v due_o though_o i_o think_v not_o in_o the_o same_o order_n of_o discernible_a act_n in_o every_o convert_n but_o however_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o if_o by_o preach_v repentance_n the_o spirit_n quicken_v a_o soul_n that_o soul_n be_v as_o sure_a to_o believe_v when_o quicken_v as_o it_o be_v to_o repent_v when_o it_o believe_v and_o so_o our_o author_n make_v but_o a_o spiteful_a flourish_n when_o he_o will_v induce_v our_o hearer_n to_o think_v we_o teach_v they_o amiss_o because_o we_o learn_v not_o of_o he_o since_o the_o print_n of_o my_o answer_n to_o what_o mr._n m._n call_v my_o second_o damn_v error_n viz._n that_o i_o make_v the_o state_n of_o believer_n to_o be_v undecided_a and_o in_o suspense_n during_o this_o life_n i_o have_v find_v the_o word_n undecided_a in_o my_o gospel_n truth_n state_v

man_n in_o this_o life_n who_o eternal_a condition_n be_v not_o eternal_o decide_v but_o be_v in_o a_o state_n of_o trial_n yea_o the_o condition_n be_v but_o a_o meetness_n to_o receive_v the_o blessing_n but_o as_o i_o have_v in_o my_o answer_n show_v that_o i_o oft_o in_o gospel_n truth_n state_v affirm_v that_o the_o elect_n shall_v persevere_v in_o faith_n and_o that_o every_o true_a saint_n be_v now_o in_o a_o state_n of_o salvation_n so_o i_o shall_v only_o add_v 1._o i_o do_v not_o here_o mention_v believer_n but_o man_n in_o general_a yea_o rather_o unbeliever_n 2._o by_o
